FALSE PROPHET(S)

By madis senner


There is one truth--it flows like a river through time connecting all of humanity. Anyone professing another truth is a false prophet.




THE UNIVERSAL TRUTH FROM WHICH ALL BEGINS

Jesus called it the 'Golden Rule'. The Hindu's and Buddhists call it the law of Karma. The Talmud tells the story of a gentile who asked Rabbi Shamai to explain all of Judaism while standing on one foot. The Rabbi dismissed the gentile. The gentile then asked Rabbi Hillel who told him; 'What is hurtful to you, do not do unto others. Now go and study the rest.' Implicit in Islam is the concept that all prophets must agree with what has said before and by doing such they corroborate those that have come before.

It is the one truth from which all begins and to which all comes back to. It is the foundation for all, from the simplest interaction to the greatest civilizations. It is, the law of laws.

A NEW TRUTH HAS REPLACED THE ANCIENT TEACHINGS

Mohammed's Wisdom

Implicit in Islam is the concept that all prophets must agree with what has said before and by doing such they corroborate those that have come before.

Our modern day sage, Adam Smith gave us a new and different universal truth upon which we have built a new and different world:

"It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker, that we expect our dinner, but from their regard of their own interest."

Capitalist’s Bible, The Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith (Random House, Modern Library Edition, 1937). (page 14 )
